The Swapper v1.0

The Swapper is a puzzle-platformer set aboard a derelict space station where players use a device to create clones of themselves and swap consciousness between them to solve environmental puzzles. Progress requires strategic placement and swapping to activate switches, traverse gaps, and manipulate objects. The game explores themes of identity, consciousness, and isolation through its narrative and level design. Players encounter narrative terminals that reveal fragments of the station’s history and the ethical implications of the technology. The art style combines detailed models with real-world clay and everyday materials photographed for a unique visual texture.
